Born Pretty Store review: Fiber gel

Today I present you Born Pretty Store Fiber gel that was kindly sent to me from Born Pretty Store for this review :-)

You can find it on Born Pretty Store website with this name: UR SUGAR 7ml Fiber Gel Polish Soak Off Extension UV Gel High Hardness Extend Nail Art Tips Toolsitem ID: 46579.


Fiber gel comes in a 7ml plastic jar, it contains a large amount of fiberglass and it can be used to repair broken nails or for nail extensions which is what I used it for :-)

This is the procedure to follow to obtain the result that you can see on my photos bellow:
1. clean your nails and file the surface of your nails to remove the surface layer
2. apply UV gel base coat polish (I use BP UV gel base coat polish) and cure it 2 minutes in 36W UV lamp
3. position the nail form and adjust it around your nails
4. apply BP Fiber gel on your nails and on the nail form as evenly as you can and cure it 2 minutes in 36W UV lamp
5. take off the nail form
6. shape your nails using your nail file and buff the surface of your nails

At this point, you can put some cuticle oil around your nails and admire the result... And then proceed and create some interesting manicure on your extended nails, using normal nail polish or UV gel polish... :-) 

On my photos, you can see the results that I obtained using BP Fiber gel to extend my nails. As you can see, it is not a very "drastic" extension; I wanted my nails to be a little bit longer that would help me also to present some new Born Pretty Store products that I got (I'll show them to you in my future posts), but I wanted to avoid the "fake" effect of my nails, I wanted them to look like my natural nails as much as I could :-)

I like the result :-) 
What do you think about it? :-)

Three manicures on artificial nails

Hello my dear followers and readers! :-)


Today I wanted to tell you something that I wanted to tell you time ago... Better late then never! :-)
Here I go: I really appreciate you following me and my works and being close to me in this wonderful nail art experience! I appreciate all your comments, I like reading your comments and replying them. I had really nice moments "talking" to many of you this way, in our comments :-)
I like to write, and I would really like to write more in every my post, but in most of my posts I write the list of nail polishes I used for the manicure and that's it... The only reason why I do like this is the lack of time. The lack of time is also the reason why today I write this post in english only, but I think that most of my italian, serbian, croatian readers (and my readers from other non-english-speaking countries) know english and will understand everything :-)
I'll try to change this in future, I'll try to write something more whenever it will be possible to me :-)


Now I want to write the story about this post :-)


These are three manicures made on artificial nails for my dear cousin Mateja, Kvacka from Rainbows and Blues blog. She chose these three from all my manicures and I had really a great pleasure doing them for her :-) Unfortunately, one of these manicures arrived damaged at the destination, but this is completely another story and I'm not going to bother you with it... The important thing is that Mateja liked all of them and that she will use two manicures that arrived in perfect conditions! 


Mateja, it would be so nice to live in the same city, we could visit each other at least once a week and do our manicures to each other. Since the situation is very different, we have to wait for another possibility to meet again and in the meantime follow each other on our blogs! I'm happy you liked how I decorated your artificial nails and we can repeat this experience whenever you want! :-)


Let me explain all the story :-) 
Since we live far away from each other and since Mateja wanted to try some of my manicures, she sent me 3 sets of artificial nails, she already prepared them choosing those nails which suited her most and shaping them. I prepared the nails attaching every nail to a simple toothpick (using removable glue pads Patafix) and simply cleaning them from the dust... Well, Mateja prepared them and already cleaned them perfectly, they were not dusty at all, I just did it to "get in contact with them" and "hypnotise" them, to prepare them for the treatment! :-)


The rest of the process was exactly the same like I do when I make the manicures on my own nails, the only difference is that I didn't put the base coat that I usually put on my nails, artificial nails don't need it :-)
Everything else and the working process you can see on the photographs bellow :-)


Nail polishes and materials that I used for these manicures were:
a-england Bridal Veil (for the manicure "Monarch butterfly wings")
a-england Tristam (for the manicure "Flowers on Tristam")
Golden Rose n° 50 light pink, Kiko n° 256 Wild Rose Microglitter, Golden Rose Nail Art n° 101 White, n°  107 Silver and n° 121 Silver glitter (for the manicure "Think Pink")
Acrylic colours
NYC n° 138 Classy Glassy top coat


If you would like to see the original manicures on my blog, follow the links bellow :-)
Monarch butterfly wings
Flowers on Tristam, which is White flowers on matt black changed a little bit :-)
Think Pink
